Can you use chevy window cranks on a Toyota?? Can they be swapped, the toyota is a 89, thanks.

If I get up to the shop today I'll let you know. My S-10 is parked there and I can try swapping a crank off it onto my Toy. I believe they are different though, seems I remember the Toyota having a lot fewer/larger splines on the crank stub.

Thanks man, let me know.

 

[adam728]

I'll check tomorrow after work and let you know. The Toy died today (ignition modual or coil) and by the time I walked for help and towed it to work an all that jazz the last thing I felt like doing was hanging out there more and playing with stuff (since I already wasted 2 1/2 hours of my life). But when I get to work tomorrow I'll pop off my S-10 crank and give her a fit test.

Hey the guy i sold my cranks to measured the stub and the amount of ribs on it and they matched up, so you dont need to now, thanks for your help though.

help

how the hell do you get he windows cranks off a 2000 s 10... i have the remover tool but cant figure out how to use it.

Just give it hell till the lil clip pops off =-P Try using a shop rag too, that seems to work nicely at times.

i can't do it. i've tried for days now. some black plastic ring thing fell off, but its still stuck on there.

lite stab, it's held on by a cotter pin. push the door in as far as possible.turn the crank n look behind the crank there's a black ring around it push that towards the door. use the tool if u have it, but i used a small flathead and needle nose. push off the pin on both sides, it might fly off or you may need to grab it with a needle nose.took me a good couple of hours. got them off like 4 mnths ago. not gonna put them back till i know there's no reason i would ever have to take off the door.

good luck, hope it helps.

mark...when ur not busys..come by and ill show you how to take it off.!!

 

[litestab]

i'll try... again, i've been trying to days now cant do it.

 

[obscenity's_ride]

[litestab]

It's NOT a cotter pin, It's a C clip and a rag works great. The stupid tool is useless. Slip a rag between the black plastic piece and the handle itself and work it around until it snags the clip and it pops off. I've done it several times on my trucks.

Ive done it before, it works, the rag grabs one of the ends of the C plamp and pops it right off..That tool is a waste of money..

 

[litestab]

what kind of rag... ill have to try it

 

[Zeeke98]

A thin rag works best. An old ripped piece of T shirt works very well. Just wrap it around and pull on one side then the other and work it around till the clip pops off. If you're lucky it'll stick in the shirt or fall into the pocket on the door(my trucks are 98's can't remember what the bottom looks like on previous years) instead of flying off somewhere you'll never find it again. When you put the crank back on slip the clip onto the handle first and then line it up where you want it and push it on. Don't forget the black plastic bushing piece first(part that sticks out goes towards the door panel.
